THE railroad interests have shown
themselves ready to co operate heart
lily in the enforcement of the inter-
state commerce law, and have set
about conforming existing arrange
ments to the new conditions. It
would seem that, saving the natural
feeling that to some extent the pro-
visions of the Interstate law are ex-
perimental and will probably need
amendment in matters of detail.
there is a widespread inclination
among railroad managers to accept
the leading principles it embodies
as beneficial to the railroads as a
body, inasmuch as elements of GER
tainty as to rates and the relations
OF the roads to each other and the
public are now, for the first time,
introduced into the so called rail-
road problem, backed BY on author
ity which commands obedience.

from the stage-fright, but as he

For the evening Capital
The City Cemetery.

AnN wy N@sSASA5s
We noticed with pleasure some
weeks since the formation of a so
ciety in the city among the ladies,
whose object is the assisting in
general way in the identifying and
improving of the old cemetery here.
We have been equally pleased also
to see that our well-known and es-
teemed citizen, Mrs. John r. Ma
gruder has been chosen as its presi-
dent, a deserved compliment, es
pecially. considering the fact that
her most esteemed and lamented
mother, Mrs. Col. Jos. n. or Eliza
Ann Nicholson was the president of
the former one, which years ago did
so much in every way towards the
placing of our cemetery in its pres
ent condition-surrounding it with
that long brick wall, and improving
its walks and drives and appearance
generally. Success to the present
society we say heartily. May their
efforts be crowned with most album
dant success.
1t has occurred to us that in con-
sideration Of Mrs. Nicholson's un-
firing, self-sacrifcing and most sue
cessful efforts also in behalf of said
cemetery years ago, that as especial
mark of respect to her memory her
last resting place there should be
visited on the first of the coming
MAY. or at such other time as may
be deemed best aud most appro-
pirate, by our citizens generally,
and that floral tributes be placed
around same, in more particular
commemoration of her services in
this good cause. Indeed the visit
ing of this home of our Beloved De-
parted and the expression of our un-
dying affection for them in the way
Of the choicest flowers we can well
comman! at the time, throughout
the Spring and Summer at least.
and indeed even the Fall as we'll is
custum. most beautiful and APP
propriate, and one which must COM
mend itself to all. Let this last
resting place Of our friends gone be-
fore us-and to prove our own per-
haps also in time-be made attrac-
tive and beautiful as far AS possible
in every way. If we may not have
a Greenwood cemetery of Brooklyn,
n. Y, or Laurel Hill of Phila-
delphia or a Mount Auburn of Cam.
bridge, Mass, or Greenmount or
a Loudon Cemetery of Baltimore,
or a Pere Ia ChaiSe of Paris we may
at least have one on a smaller scale
here attractive in its way. The
proper care for the dead may be re-
garded in fact as one strong evil
dence always of the civilization and
refinement of its people.
Hurry on then the good work at
once in every way, whether in the
way of fairs.or private theatricals or
amusements of any kind, or steam
boat or railroad excursions, or pri-
vate subscriptions, or gifts or dona-
tons in any way, or what not--any-
thing for the good cause, and the
sooner the better for every reason.
Spring is now fairly upon us. Let
all be active, up and doing at once
IN every way. CIvIs.

SENATOR German, we are INFORM
cd, collected at his Washington res
id ence recently, number of his
most influential and reliable friends
and gave them ''square meal of
substantial meats with clancy fix

made contented with themselves and

bers of the Crescent Club), a pro-
gram was arranged for carrying on
the fall campaign in this state. All
the candidates from Governor down
were agreed upon, and the State of
the "grandmother's fund.- was crit
ically inquired into and assessments
arranged for its increase.

A correspondent Of the CAPITAL
asks: ''The artesian well at the
Market house has proved such a
success, wonld it not be well for
the council to have the old polluted
pumps removed, and artezian wells
take their places? The expense of
keeping in order the old fashioned
pump, would pay the cost of boring
flowing wells in a very short time. "
Any means of supplying pure
drinking water, to take place of
water now drawn from our pumps.
would be economy at any reasonable
cost.

We are glad to see that our citi
zens are taking active steps to pro
vide an enlarged resting place for
our dead. The city cemetery is full
to OVERLOOKING our population is
increasing; the price of lands has an
upward tendency, and delay in this
matter may deprive us Of a desir-
able location. We would simply
suggest, that whatever site may be
selected, it viii be outside Of the
present limits of the city, and leave
us room to grow without embracing
in our future expanded territory, a
"Home of the Dead. "

result of which was Mr.. Curtiss and Mrs.
Tprner left their homes. a few days

guns, fred through the window OF Mrs.
Curtiss' house, doubtless intending to
kill her and her two children while they
slept. Two loads Oi shot passed Just
over the sleepers and were buried in the
wall on the opposite side of the room.
The terrified woman and children fed,
TO a neighbours, pursued by the vii
liars, but luckily they were not

cause for the outrage. When He. was
fiOgged he asked the reason for it, bus no
reply was given. He denies any an
